Looking for a set of song collections for making your Valentine’s day unforgettable? Do you need a CD to have the romantic candle light dinner, or when you are alone with your loved one? Then you got to have this CD. This is a very steamy, sensual and seductive CD that will definately blows your mind and sets off your mood to romance.
Boney James, one of the most respected and best selling instrumental artists today, continues his journey with this brand new CD, Send One Your Love (2009) with the whole concept especially made for Valentine. He referred the album as “the ultimate musical Valentine.” And he perfectly made one. This album has all the ingredients to make you fly and stay on the highest stage of romance.
One of the most seductive CD I’ve ever heard in years. It’s way higher than the sensuous feeling you’ve ever expected out of an album. This album will instantly caught you off guard and lock you inside the deepest feeling of love. Boney James can do that with his amazing gift. With him the saxophone comes alive and able to tell us about many things. But he doesn’t stop there, because with some of his previous CDs over the past 16 years, together with his brand new album, Send One Your Love, he proved that he’s capable to create the most sensual atmosphere one could ever be.
A set of 10 most seductive love songs are packed in one CD, including cover songs of Stevie wonder (Send One Your Love), The Stylistics (Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart) ), James Taylor (Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight), Barry White (I’m Gonna Love You Just A Little More Baby), Brother Johnsons (I’ll Be Good To You) and John Klemmer (Touch). Most of these selections have been in my list in times of romance. Further on, Boney James added four of his new original compositions,which I think were the most romantic songs he ever written. All these inspiring new compositions are just at the same stage of all the timeless cover songs to rise up the sense of romance. “Butter”, according to James “is both delicious and bad for you”, and he said it right. Watch out for this song. “The City of Light” creates a reminiscence of France, you’ll feel the passion comes out through the lights of Paris, The City of Love. This song features an amazing guitar section courtesy of Dean Parks. “Hold On Tight” is a smooth and beautiful melancholy song with string section attached. Then “Wanna Show U Sumthin’”, is a temptatious song with the help of breathy voice of Sue Ann Carwell. The album also features a new R&B vocalist with a deep soulful voice, Quinn in “Don’t Let Me Be Lonely Tonight”.
About the whole concept of the album, James said “I wanted this to be an album, not just a collection of songs. I wanted to tell a romantic story from the beginning to the end.” And I dare to say that he successfully achieved the objective. Yes, any kinds of genre can picture love, passion and romance, but there’s nothing better than having it in the mood of soulful music presented in the shape of smooth contemporary jazz. And Boney James can surely deliver it the best way.
Steamy, sensual and seductive, is the best way to describe Boney James’ new album: Send One Your Love. No need to search for songs or albums that will suit your Valentine plan. Just grab and play this CD and have the most sensuous journey of love on your Valentine’s day.
